'The Incredible Hulk' is Brainless Fun -- and Little Elsenew
The movie is pretty much a take-it-or-leave-it affair: It's not bad for a summer no-brainer, but it's definitely not the vast improvement on the prior film its producers would like you to believe it is. It's pretty good, yet unremarkable.

Growth of a Franchisenew
For all its gimmicky mayhem, Transporter 2 is an improvement over the original, completely setting aside such yawn-inducing cinematic standbys as a romantic interest and realism.

No matter how hard Unleashed director Louis Letterier and star Jet Li try, they're working with atonal material, and can't have it both ways.

Jet Li, in his first Western role of any depth, convincingly plays both man and beast, although a sentimental script by producer Luc Besson hampers the story.
